Sheila, Rusty and Katie are on the road again. Fresh from their adventures in Barkerville, the trio is now in southern Alberta.

Developers want to take over his land to build new housing and a golf course and when the night watchman at the development is shot, all the evidence points to Sheila's father. Sheila tries to help out, but the clues she finds only make things worse. Is Sheila's dad guilty? She doesn't think so and with help from the others sets out to prove it.

About the author

No doubt about it, I've always loved books. When we were small, my parents always read to my sister and me at bedtime. My dad used a sleepy-yawny voice that I now realize was his attempt to make us fall asleep.
As the younger sister, I got so mad when it worked!
I read tons of books as a kid and on into my twenties and thirties.
I still read now, but not nearly as much. Don't know why, maybe age, maybe becoming a writer myself, maybe both, but not as many books intrigue me, pull me in, involve me in characters' lives as before.
I love to write, and began writing stories for kids at my favorite age, nine to twelve. Then I grew up a little to write teen books.
'Disappearing Act',is a short but exciting crime novel is my first venture in to grown up fiction!
